Nvidia

Jen-hsun is an incredible leader with a vision that has made the company the giant that it is today. Innovation that sets the direction for all others to follow.

With growth comes problems. The company is not the nimble leader it was 10 years ago. Now it is bogged down with folks more worried about how they look to those above them than how good the product is. There is an added expectation that you work around the clock since we are a global company. This has led to a big negative impact on my family, where vacations had to be canceled all for the sake of a KPI that was never achievable in the first place.

The pay is below market, and in the past, options were there to make up for that. Now, with RSUs, the stock grants are a joke, and the pay is still subpar. The biggest problem is the required time you have to put in. When you work for NVIDIA, your life is not your own. It is theirs, and it will burn you out like no other.

Stop pushing for 80 hours of work to be done in a week.

Move pay up to be at least to market.

Give folks a reason for how hard they need to work instead of the 'Because I said so' answer you give now.
